Morkull Ragast’s Rage launch trailer – action platformer starring a villain comes to Nintendo Switch
Morkull Ragast’s Rage received one last trailer for its launch this week. As a reminder, this is a 2D action platformer in which you play as the villain of the story.
More information can be found in the following eShop description:
It’s been a few years since we saw the original game on Nintendo Switch, but now Apple Knight 2 will be dropping in just a few days. According to a store page listing, it launches on March 13, 2025.
Apple Knight 2 offers more action platforming gameplay, just like the previous title. Developer Limitless promises “treacherous dungeons, loot powerful gear, and unlock a vast arsenal of weapons and skins.”
Here’s some additional information:
Listings on the eShops provide file sizes for a bunch of Nintendo Switch games. These include Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3 + 4, Fate: Reawakened, and more.
Here’s the full roundup:
A fresh trailer is in to go along with the launch of Sorry We’re Closed. The game, an eccentric story-driven survival horror game, made it to Nintendo Switch this week.
A bunch of details about it can be found in the following overview:
The Super Mario Bros. Movie is almost two years old already. When it first released in April 2023, it was received fairly well as far as video game movies go – and it became one of the most successful animated movies of all time. That said, one of its shortcomings was its story. It moved quite fast, separated Mario and Luigi at the start, and overall didn’t feature a ton of character depth or development. That’s fairly typical for the first movie in a series, though.
Indeed, we’ve received confirmation that there is a second movie “based on the world of Super Mario Bros.” in development. There’s no word on exactly what it will be. It’s probably safe to assume that it will simply be The Super Mario Bros. Movie 2, but there’s a chance it could be based around Donkey Kong or possibly someone else. So today, we’re discussing some potential plot point ideas for the next Mario movie, which we may even see for Mario Day this year. In order to best predict potential storylines for the next movie, we do have to spoil many elements of the first film – so keep that in mind before you continue reading.
Former Nintendo of America staffers have shared some interesting behind-the-scenes information about what it was like working in collaboration with The Pokemon Company, with the relationship described as being “adversarial”.
Kit Ellis and Krysta Yang shared the details during a recent episode of their podcast. Yang brought up how there was a “tug of war for control”. Ellis also brought up about how The Pokemon Company hammered in on pronunciations and was particular about even the finest details of its creatures.
A new month just started up a few days ago. Now that we’re in March, we want to know what you’ve been playing.
